Riversails Condo - general fengshui

[myfs_155690]

Hi, I would like to ask how is the general fengshui for the latest Riversails condo in Sengkang? It is opposite side of Riversounds which I recall Mstr Lee mentioned is not good.

[Cecil Lee]

1. Riversails, east, morning sun and reflection from Sungei Serangoon (reservior)
2. Frankly, very few people or even Feng Shui practitioners will consider this.
3. Sun rays even if it is morning sun is actually part and particle of Shapes and Forms Feng Shui. For example, even in the early morning, do go for a swim.. and one can easily get darken skin due to ultra violet light.
4. In this case, morning sun, reflection and uv light...

fortunately, there is only one Major
Road i.e. at the tip of Upper Serangoon
Road which is relatively not as
potentially busy.. as there is an
alternative road = Hougang Ave 7 for
other residents below this tip (Upper
serangoon) as fewer people would head
north; instead, they would most likely
head south wards to wards Paya Lebar
etc...3. There will be an estate road:
Upper Serangoon Crest (U/c) that will be
serving this development and it's next
door neighbour. Like any other
development; there will always be good
and not so good units in this
development.4. For Riversails; flats can
be ranked in a bell-curve. There are
excellent stacks and the rock bottom
stacks and the rest are in the middle of
such a bell-curve.5. Riversails Stacks 2
and 18 for example would depend on how
the future neighbouring plot organise
their layout of their blocks. Hopefully,
these blocks are parallel to especially
these two stacks.6. Riversails Stacks
14, 16 and 18 that is parallel to Sungei
Pinang and facing this river; needs to
be further evaluated as the flow of
water from left to right of the frontage
is based on the water-dragon classics.7.
Riversails Blocks 6, 8, 10 and 12This
applies to:7.1. Stacks that face
EAST7.2. High floors7.3. The above
stacks facing EAST have to be careful of
the reflection on the water of Sungei
Serangoon. 7.4. For example, depending
on the season and time of morning; the
sun would reflect light onto the body of
water at Sungei Serangoon. And in many
instances, the calm water in this river
will act like a mirror; and the full
unobstructed morning sun will reflect
sunlight directly into certain stacks of
blocks 6, 8, 10 and 12 that is directly
east facing.8. For afternoon sun, the
pond at punggol park will most likely be
a concern for those who purchase units
at Riversail's neighbouring plot (to the
right of this condo).On 9/28/2012

This is a simple illustration showing a frozen time of day (in the morning) where the sun on a non cloudly day may shine onto the pool of water in Sungei Serangoon.

Try this:
For those who are taking an MRT train from Yishun / Khatib towards the city and pass the stretch as highlighted in purple:
Standing and facing east; on a sunny morning (roughly around 8.30am or thereabouts)...
One should be seeing the morning sun reflected onto the calm water following you from the begining of the purple line to where the water line disappears...

[Cecil Lee]

1. Let me elaborate further.
2. Many years back when The Rivervale condo (see attachment) TOP.
3. I was holding a Luopan and doing a first visit. Naturally, during the first visit, I had to go towards the living room area to scan the environment.
4. It is many years back, so I cannot remember fully, which season it is as every 6th monthly the rays of the sun changes due to our tilt in the earth axis.
5. I was standing in one of the units either in Block 1 or 3 in the PURPLE circled stacks overlooking the Sungei Pinang.
5.2 By the way, Sungei Pinang was not the "issue" but rather, till today, I can still vividly remember the full force of the sun rays reflecting onto the pool at Punggol Park which I marked as a purple "X".
6. The glare was so great that it "nearly blinded" me as I had to check the Luopan readings but had difficulty doing so.
7. For those who stay or have passed thru Yishun. If one has a chance to take an MRT train heading towards the city in the morning, and standing facing the North side i.e. the Yishun Reservoir can also see the glare of reflected sunlight onto the calm water and following one go on the water line.
8. Often for landed properties; often, it is adviced not to use slanted glass at the facade as often the sunlight can also reflect onto this piece of glass and bring "glare" into the windows of a bedroom...
9. Feng Shui is a live subject and such "glare" can also be considered as belonging this part of Feng Shui science...and believe me, it is for real..
10. There are many other situations where two blocks housing are close-by. And sometimes when we stand in the living room or balcony or even a bedroom of a specific stack in a block, how many of you will get uncomfortable with the glare coming off the wall of a neighbouring block? Thus, in this simple example; one don't need to be near to a water position to get "white pollution" from sunlight glare...
P.S. Frankly, I am as puzzled as you to see reflected glare at The Rivervale as it (the stacks)are notexactly in a DIRECT East-West alignment. Thus, I am not claiming that it is a daily occurence. But for those stacks directly facing east e.g. in Riversails: the good news is that it occurs momentary in the morning... the bad news is that this might occur on a sunny day all year round!

In my opinion:
1. Riversound Residence:
1.1. In my opinion, this development has two "fast moving" water courses in the form of two potential busy roads or highway type of road i.e. Buangkok Drive that connects to the highly used aerial road = KPE and the other is Sengkang East Drive.
1.2. Sengkang East Drive is another "mega" highway that links the every growing HUGE population up north at Punggol.
1.3. It has an "estate road". But, because of Para 1.1 and 1.2; this is why roads are like water courses... ain't fantastic for this plot of land.
1.4. As mentioned above, Riversound will have two major "water courses" and Buangkok Drive will progressively become a more "aggressive" river with more and more load. Too aggressive a flow is not favourable so close to the length of one side of the development.
1.5. Please see attachment. Where in the future, Yio Chu Kang road will branch off carrying traffic when the entire stretch of Buangkok Drive is completed i.e. Marking in RED A to B.
2. For Riversails; fortunately, there is only one Major Road i.e. at the tip of Upper Serangoon Road which is relatively not as potentially busy.. as there is an alternative road = Hougang Ave 7 for other residents below this tip (Upper serangoon) as fewer people would head north; instead, they would most likely head south wards to wards Paya Lebar etc...
3. There will be an estate road: Upper Serangoon Crest (U/c) that will be serving this development and it's next door neighbour. Like any other development; there will always be good and not so good units in this development.
4. For Riversails; flats can be ranked in a bell-curve. There are excellent stacks and the rock bottom stacks and the rest are in the middle of such a bell-curve.
5. Riversails Stacks 2 and 18 for example would depend on how the future neighbouring plot organise their layout of their blocks. Hopefully, these blocks are parallel to especially these two stacks.
6. Riversails Stacks 14, 16 and 18 that is parallel to Sungei Pinang and facing this river; needs to be further evaluated as the flow of water from left to right of the frontage is based on the water-dragon classics.
7. Riversails Blocks 6, 8, 10 and 12
This applies to:
7.1. Stacks that face EAST
7.2. High floors
7.3. The above stacks facing EAST have to be careful of the reflection on the water of Sungei Serangoon.
7.4. For example, depending on the season and time of morning; the sun would reflect light onto the body of water at Sungei Serangoon. And in many instances, the calm water in this river will act like a mirror; and the full unobstructed morning sun will reflect sunlight directly into certain stacks of blocks 6, 8, 10 and 12 that is directly east facing.

These are further considerations:
1. In my opinion, the developer are pretty smart. They seem to release all the not so good stacks, first.
2. And are holding back "better stacks".
3. Recently, after the VVIP lauch, they also released Block 14 with various stacks in it.
3.1. Frankly, this is not Feng Shui but although the stacks starts with # -3x; in the future, some are concerned that number "14" to the Cantonese means SURE TO DIE... may thus affect it's resale value.
3.2. Thanks to the government's cooling measure... (the earlier 3% stamp duty stuff is pussy cat as most developers reimburse it)
3.3. But with this new MAS measure that effective halts investing.
4. In my opinion, in the next 6 months... there can be a price correction of about 10%.
5. Contrary to the Business Times... after the cooling measures.. Riversails only managed to sell a poultry 20 units during last weekend... And Skies Miltonia.. also ain't fare that well..
6. Happy times to come for the genuine buyer... due to foreseeable price drop even with the influx of Foreign Talent (FT)...
7. Even the ECO @ Tanah Merah is now giving away "free stuffs". Mind you.. this was unheard of for developments in the popular East wheree there are few and far new large developments around...Anyway.. this ain't Feng Shui....
8. Please see attachment. The stacks highlighted are affected by the flow of water from the Sungei Pinang River / Canal

Can I check with you for Riversails condo, if need to compare stack 12,15, 31 & 34 fengshui, which stack will have better fengshui? All 4 stacks faces the Upper Serangoon Road, but only Stack 34 have unblock river view. Other 3 stacks are facing the upcoming BTO flats. Appreciate your opinion on houses facing the road.

No wonder it took longer to built as the interior walls are solid and not dry walls??

"We continue to advise and request that investigations of external factors take place at Riversails, including stability of power supply and electrical infrastructure of the affected buildings and sites," it said.

The manufacturer will also be removing another 398 units of the fridge installed in four other condominiums. The affected properties are Katong Regency, Skygreen, Winsland Serviced Suites by Lanson Place, and Wisteria.

On 15 December 2023

In the past, it was permitted for developers to provide shoe cabinets outside each unit’s front door.

However, due to the concerns of combustion or fire hazards, developers are no longer allowed to automatically provide such shoe cabinets.

However, some residents took it on their own to do so. And usually the government just turn a blind eye to this.
